According to the governor, the plan for fiscal year beginning July 1 is part of a larger five- year program that will cost $4 billion and include im- a larger five" ill i provements on more than 1,000 miles of roads.

'Field Day' set in Wonder Lake Archaelogists uncover mysteries of past By Christine Wood Plalodealer Herald News Service Anyone who's ever been bitten by the Archaeology Bug, but has never known quite what to do about it, will have the opportunity to dig deeper into this in­ teresting subject On Saturday, May 11. The Sauk Trail Chapter of The Illinois Association for the Advancement of Ar­ chaeology will be holding a Training Day that will in­ clude both an information session and field work. According to Craig Pfannkuche, the Chapter's secretary, participants will learn about archaeology in* general, the use of topographical map in locating possible ar- chaeoligicalsites, and correct methods for recording them. Prjj-te^s i o n a 1 a r - leologist Bob Geski of rthwestern University be the guest speaker, and Chapter members will be on hand ^to help newcomers use "correct techniques in field work. Participants are asked to bring a garden shovel and trowel. The day will begin at 9 a.m. at the Highland Shores Community Building, 9015 Woody Trail, in Wonder Lake. Field work will be done at a nearby site that will quite possibly yield some artifacts. Amatuers need not worry that they will pass over a {>recious find. "If you're ooking for anartifact," said Pfannkuche, "and you cross the fields - you'll see it. You won't have to ask 'I wonder if this is an „ arrowhead?' Even the rankest beginner knows that an artifact is an artifact." Those who decide that they might be interested in joining the Chapter will find something for every level of interest. Some will enjoy slide shows or trips to special archaeological museums. Others will want to work at the Hollows, the site of an 1870's farm house that is presently being excavated by club mem­ bers. Hours spent in field survey, excavation, and lab work are recorded because after a certain level of proficiency is attained this record can qualify an in­ dividual to work on many sites around the country. Those who wish to explore their own backyards (or , fields) will find club ' members willing to help with everything from advice v to hard work. According to Pfannkuche, youngsters are welcome to join the Chapter. "We need to teach kids the value of env i ronmen ta l and ecological preservation," he said. "We want to help them learn all kinds of neat things, because then they'll become excited adults who want to care for and preserve our historical, env i ronmen ta l , and a r ­ chaeological heritage."
